Chassis Fans
OK I have decided to get some chassis fans for my case as there are none at
the mo' and temps of 60C are not going down well with me... OK now I have one 4 pin PS plug thingy left (from the PSU) ...so if I got two or 3 fans (one intake at the front and 2 outtakes at the back) would it be possible to daisy-chain then all? ie will each fan have both male and female 4-pin ps plugs? Will 3 fans have a great deal of effect on my PSU power?....I know that I shouldn't drain power from my mobo nor should I really daisy chain them off the ps from my HD... Any help would be welcomed.... Cheers Craig.... |

Don't worry....I went ahead and bought 3 fans....I took them to the counter which invited a "''ave an over'eatin' problem do ya'?" responce.....but I am much happier with the results... MB has dropped from 50C to 28C and CPU idles around 44C which is much better than the previous 60C! Craig... |
